It does and it doesn't. . . so many variables exist when talking about MJ effects on the user. It wouldnt be fair to destroy its image when we dont yet know all the benefits, and there are Many as others have shown here.
I think we need to take into account that with so many factors such as chemistry of the user, amount absorbed the the body, frequency of using MJ, not to mention the huge diversity of types of MJ and the various effects different "strains" can have on different people. With various effects on people we cannot simply say that it dumbs you or raises you.
At the end of the day we all know that Over indulging in most things will lead to a detrimental effect at some point in the future. Unfortunately via negative propaganda about MJ over the years has set back scientists on working with the substance to re-educate people about the 100's of beneficial applications for the herb. Granted, absorption of MJ by smoking will damage lungs and over indulgence leads to tollerance build up. these negative effects all MJ smokers will know of, which sensibly we should listen to (as hard as that maybe, and yes i know from experience).
Its always good to have discussions about subjects most people find taboo ( the reason we're all here on the forums no less
)
Good reading guys
